Lies. I loved New X-Men precisely because, while punching super powered, telepathic womb demons, nobody decided to have a quick chat or go on about some shit. SFX and artwork only. It was awesome.

I've never read it. To be honest, I don't really dig that many older comics myself- i tend to find the sheer weight of captions, thought bubbles and exposition suffocating. I much prefer modern books that are a bit lighter on those fronts.

Last night I punched my girlfriend in the head

Sleep twitches are hilarious. I once kneed my then girl proper hard in the spine from one. Felt pretty bad about that. -
I use Amazon- the small sellers tend to do a great trade in discounted first hand paperbacks. Around £6 each. Green Lantern is pretty substantial but you'll want to look in to the recent run by Geoff Johns that starts with Green Lantern: Rebirth then the series reverts back to #1 after that. Similarly, you could look in to Green Lantern Corps: Recharge and the new #1 that follows. GLC is a sister title and is based in space with dozens of Lanterns in the cast, while GL itself is about Hal Jordan, the original DC Lantern. They're written to be read in tandem and occasionally cross over, though each book is self contained.

you don't have to get through the thread. Just ask- or better yet start your own thread and we can help.

Hey, I take that personally! CBD was reopened because, week by week, we discuss a fuckton of books so smaller threads aren't an option. If you want to ask something we don't bite

the best thing about this film is that the poster makes RDJ look about 25.

my mum just ran upstairs when she heard the end of With Portfolio by Mogwai in a massive panic. If you don't know the song, it culminates in a MASSIVE, throbbing stereo wave that sends a colossal feedback note from left to right between your speekers. It sounds a bit like what I imagine a massive brain hemorrhage might do. "What is it!?" "Music, mum" "I thought something had happened!" "Like what?" "I thought you had collapsed on your computer or something" "What?"

Yes! The Dears are ace.

It sounds horrendous. Take loads of pictures of tragic people.
-
I know. it's great, isn't it?
-
oh you can build much more than just a convention.
-
That looks completely retarded.

What about The Fly?

Paj old boy, where should one start with X-men Legacy to be up to speed with Stuff? A decent jump on around the move West would likely do, or whenever it became more about Rogue. I'm exceptionally hazy on it.
-
The problem with that is that they can make anyone look and move like Spider-Man so a fight scene is no good for an audition tape. Definitely shows a love of the sauce, though.
-
Just as long as this doesn't end up like the last one and people start suggesting Transformers as intellectual viewing for discerning film lovers.
-
Oh shit, someone told Bard. ruuuuuuuunnn!

It's out and about. I'm sure the cool kids will help.
-
Ha that's cool. I never knew that.

OK the demo for that was ok. Never said my list was a full showing though did I? The odds aren't good, though. Which is a shame because a good Green Lantern game would be so unbelievably sick it's actually untrue. In the series you have Lanterns in their thousands flying through black holes in to alternative dimensions, battling sentient city planets, conversing with living forest worlds, wielding the most powerful weapons in the universe and doing stuff like saving entire solar systems from destruction. It's crazy sci fi space opera on a grand scale and it's just brilliant this game will be a guy making big green fists and punching robots. Watch it happen.

Just a quick game: Think of the genuinely good games from movies and comic books etc. Here's my list: Batman AA Goldeneye Transformers (PS2) What they have in common: none were made to schedule with a movie. In Edge, they got an 8, a 9 (considered a missed 10) and a 9 on the other hand, lets have some shit ones Superman Returns Spider-man 3 Transformers Iron Man Most of them are considered some of the worst games ever reviewed by Edge. They were all made to coincide with movies This game doesn't have a snowball's chance.
